Rationale for the proposed standard for a generic package of elementary functions for Ada
- Argonne National Lab., IL (USA)
This paper supplements the Proposed Standard for a Generic Package of Elementary Functions for Ada,'' written by the ISO-IEC/JTC1/SC22/WG9 (Ada) Numerics Rapporteur Group. Based on recommendations made jointly by the ACM SIGAda Numerics Working Group and the Ada-Europe Numerics Working Group, the proposed elementary functions standard is the first of several anticipated collateral standards to address the interrelated issues of portability, efficiency, and robustness of numerical software written in Ada. Organized as a series of questions and answers, this supplement outlines the reasoning by which the proposed standard came to acquire certain features and exclude others. 22 refs.
